Previous model B60 Sports

The Berkeley B65 is a mini sports car that the British manufacturer Berkeley Cars built from September 1960 to December 1960.

The B65 was to be added to the T60 and B95 / B105 models in 1960 . He received the three-piece GRP -Karosserie of B90 , which for receiving the three-cylinder - two-stroke engine was intended, but was with the two-cylinder engine of Excelsior with 328 cc (bore x stroke = 58 mm × 62 mm) fitted. The engine developed 18 bhp (13.2 kW) at 5000 rpm, like its predecessor.

Less than 20 copies were made in the four months of production.
